PRA Congratulates Abdulaziz Yari on Appointment as APC Presidential Campaign DG, Pledges Grassroots Support for Renewed Hope



The Progressive Redemption Alliance (PRA) has warmly congratulated Distinguished Senator Abdulaziz Abubakar Yari on his well-deserved appointment as Director-General of the All Progressives Congress (APC) Presidential Campaign Council for the 2027 general elections.

In a statement issued by its Convener, Comrade Olajide Wolimoh, the Alliance described the appointment as a strategic masterstroke that reflects the APC leadership’s clear understanding of the demands of a high-stakes national campaign.

Wolimoh noted that Senator Yari brings to the role a rare combination of executive experience, legislative exposure and deep grassroots political understanding. As a former Governor of Zamfara State and a serving Senator, Yari has demonstrated the capacity to mobilise diverse stakeholders, manage complex political structures and deliver results under pressure.

“The choice of Senator Abdulaziz Yari as Director-General of the Presidential Campaign Council is both timely and inspiring,” Wolimoh stated. “He is a tested mobiliser, a bridge-builder and a politician who understands the pulse of the Nigerian electorate across regions. His appointment sends a strong signal that the APC is assembling a competent, experienced and results-oriented team to prosecute the 2027 campaign.”

The PRA Convener also extended warm congratulations to other members of the newly constituted Presidential Campaign Council, describing them as capable hands whose collective experience will enrich the campaign architecture.

Positioning the Progressive Redemption Alliance, Wolimoh emphasised that the PRA is a socio-political movement rooted in the grassroots and driven by organic members who remain committed to progressive and people-centred values. The Alliance, he explained, draws from the redeeming ideals of social justice and mass empowerment historically associated with progressive politics, while fully embracing the practical opportunities offered by the Renewed Hope Agenda of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.

“The PRA is not a gathering of political spectators. We are a formation with real structures and loyal followership across several states. Our members believe in politics that serves the ordinary people. We therefore look forward to working closely with the Presidential Campaign Council under the leadership of Senator Yari to deepen grassroots mobilisation, expand the reach of the Renewed Hope message, and contribute meaningfully to the re-election of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and victory for the APC at all levels in 2027,” Wolimoh declared.

He expressed confidence that with disciplined coordination, inclusive engagement and effective communication of the administration’s achievements and vision, the campaign would successfully connect with Nigerians and secure a decisive mandate for continuity and progress.

The Progressive Redemption Alliance wished Senator Yari and the entire campaign team wisdom, strength and resounding success in the important national assignment.

Court Sets Aside Arrest, Remand, Wanted Declaration Against Hammed Tajudeen Akanbi

A Magistrate Court sitting in Ogba, Ikeja, Lagos, has set aside its earlier ex-parte order authorizing the arrest, remand, and “wanted” declaration of Hammed Tajudeen Akanbi, also known as Hammed Ajiran. The development follows the earlier declaration of Akanbi as wanted for alleged multiple murder by the Lagos State Commissioner of Police, Moshood Olorundare Jimoh, on February 19, 2026. However, in a ruling delivered today, Magistrate L.A. Owolabi of Magistrate Court 3 nullified the ex-parte order initially granted on February 16, 2026. In his decision, Magistrate Owolabi held that the order was obtained through the concealment of material facts. The court specifically noted that the counsel who filed and argued the application, Nosa Watson Uhumwangho, was under suspension by the Legal Practitioners Disciplinary Committee at the time and therefore lacked the right of audience before the court. The ruling sparked jubilation among members of the youth wing of the Ojomu royal family, who...

Lagos Lawyer, Ajulo, Labels AIG Moshood Jimoh 'Incompetent,' Demands Independent Review of Ajiran Killings Probe

A Lagos-based lawyer, Adedotun Ajulo Esq, has described the Assistant Inspector-General of Police (AIG), Moshood Jimoh, as "incompetent and renewed his call for an independent review of the police investigation into the killings in Ajiran Community. Ajulo made the remarks in a statement issued in response to a publication titled "Ajiran killings: Groups, Stakeholders Exonerate AIG Jimoh Moshood from Corrupt Allegations, Refutes Defamatory Statement as Fallacy,"* in which several groups defended the senior police officer against allegations surrounding the handling of the murder investigation. According to the lawyer, public endorsements and declarations of support cannot replace transparency and accountability in restoring public confidence in the justice system. "Public confidence in the administration of justice cannot be restored through endorsements or public declarations. Confidence is earned through a process that is demonstrably impartial, transparent, and ca...

Court Cautions Police, Orders Proper Invitation of Hammed Tajudeen Akanbi

A Lagos State Magistrate Court has cautioned the Lagos State Police Command and directed that proper procedures be followed in the handling of the case involving Mr. Hammed Tajudeen Akanbi, also known as Hammed Ajiran, in what is seen as a setback for individuals including Bashir Fakorede, Jide Akinloye, and Assistant Inspector-General of Police, AIG Jimoh Moshood. Presiding over proceedings in the Ogba Magisterial District, Magistrate A. J. Odueke, in Charge No: MISC/126/2026, held that the police must formally invite Akanbi rather than declare him wanted. The Court further stated that an order for arrest would only be considered if he fails to honour such an invitation. The Court noted that it was mindful of previous proceedings in Charge No: MCIK/60A/2026, where a similar application had earlier been set aside by another Magistrate on March 23, 2026, on the grounds of illegality. Consequently, the Court declined to entertain what it described as a repetition of a defective process. ...
